Kijiji.Ad.Get() Doesn't return to callback about kijiji-scraper HOT 1 CLOSED

An options parameter was added to Ad.Get() and Ad.scrape() a few versions back (6.0.0) so you can specify which scraper type to use ("html" or "api"). The signature for Ad.Get(), for example, is now Ad.Get(url[, options, callback]). This is stated in the README but the example is wrong as you point out (it's also wrong for Ad.scrape()).

You need to do it like:

kijiji.Ad.Get(url, {}, function(err, ad) {
    if (!err) {
        // Use the ad object
        console.log(ad.title);
    }
});

I've updated the relevant examples in the README, thanks.

As for the URLs, the query string is irrelevant. You can remove the question mark and everything after it and it will work (the same is true in your browser). Regardless, I've made the URL check more lenient (it will discard the query string).
